Deutsch Dienstag-St. Martin

St. Martin's Day was this past week.  St. Martin was a good man who helped the poor.  On this day the children act out a part of St. Martin's story.  They sing songs about him and they go on a night walk while carrying paper lanterns that they have made. 

 

Noah was involved in the fest for our village.  It was held at his Kindergarten and the oldest kids acted out the story and sang songs.  He was the best Star 1 ever!

Getting ready for the play.  St. Martin is the little boy in the black hat.

 

 

 

We watched the play, listened to the songs, walked around for an hour with the laterns, and then enjoyed a fire and big pretzels. There was quite a large village turnout.  It was a great experience.  I love seeing Noah interact in German because he doesn't always speak for us at home. 

This is Noah saying his Star 1 part because it was too hard to hear him when he was actually doing the play.
